以斯帖记4:4~11
4 王后以斯帖的宫女和太监来把这事告诉以斯帖,她甚是忧愁,就送衣服给末底改穿,要他脱下麻衣,他却不受。
5 以斯帖就把王所派伺候她的一个太监,名叫哈他革召来,吩咐他去见末底改,要知道这是什么事,是什么缘故。
6 于是哈他革出到朝门前的宽阔处见末底改。
7 末底改将自己所遇的事,并哈曼为灭绝犹大人应许捐入王库的银数都告诉了他;
8 又将所抄写传遍书珊城要灭绝犹大人的旨意交给哈他革,要给以斯帖看,又要给她说明,并嘱咐她进去见王,为本族的人在王面前恳切祈求。
9 哈他革回来,将末底改的话告诉以斯帖;
10 以斯帖就吩咐哈他革去见末底改,说:
11 「王的一切臣仆和各省的人民都知道有一个定例:若不蒙召,擅入内院见王的,无论男女必被治死;除非王向他伸出金杖,不得存活。现在我没有蒙召进去见王已经三十日了。」
4 When Esther’s eunuchs and female attendants came and told her about Mordecai, she was in great distress. She sent clothes for him to put on instead of his sackcloth, but he would not accept them.
5 Then Esther summoned Hathak, one of the king’s eunuchs assigned to attend her, and ordered him to find out what was troubling Mordecai and why.
6 So Hathak went out to Mordecai in the open square of the city in front of the king’s gate.
7 Mordecai told him everything that had happened to him, including the exact amount of money Haman had promised to pay into the royal treasury for the destruction of the Jews.
8 He also gave him a copy of the text of the edict for their annihilation, which had been published in Susa, to show to Esther and explain it to her, and he told him to instruct her to go into the king’s presence to beg for mercy and plead with him for her people.
9 Hathak went back and reported to Esther what Mordecai had said.
10 Then she instructed him to say to Mordecai,
11 “All the king’s officials and the people of the royal provinces know that for any man or woman who approaches the king in the inner court without being summoned the king has but one law: that they be put to death unless the king extends the gold scepter to them and spares their lives. But thirty days have passed since I was called to go to the king.”
